Description

The Exploits of Elaine (Pathé, 1915). One Sheet (28" X 42")
Episode 12 -- "The Blood Crystals."
Although she was not the first serial queen - that honor goes to
Mary Fuller, star of What Happened to Mary? - there's little
question that Pearl White was the greatest of all the women who
risked life and limb each week on the cinema screen for the
entertainment of the movie-going public. White made her serial
debut in 1914 as the title character in The Perils of
Pauline, and then went on to make three different chapterplays
centered around the exploits of Elaine Dodge, of which this was the
first in the series. Never sold before by Heritage, this vibrant
stone litho beauty has had professional restoration address tears,
wrinkling and chips in the borders and interior. There were
sections of paper loss in the borders that have been replaced. Fine
on Linen.
